    I realise I have not made many vlogs lately and want to apologise to you all - my faithful viewers. I have spend more time on my monthly newsletter on innovation and new writings and international speaking engagements instead.

    As an ABC, I have travelled to China over a dozen times over the last 40 years. The changes over this period have been breathtaking, but the biggest change has been the deliverance of nearly 800,000,000 citizens out of poverty. Gobsmaked Americans are agape but have gone out of their way to minimize and demonize any Chinese accomplishments. It is getting tiresome hearing racist, biased Western politicians cry about "potential national security" risks. I just returned from another phenomenal trip to China (Shenzhen and Chengdu). Based on my interactions with friends and relatives in China, they are not preoccupied with Anti-American sentiment. America's hysteria about all things Chinese is rooted in unadulterated racism and the inability to accept that China could EVER be a formidable rival.

    The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher.
    The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. .
    It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do.
    It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis.
    Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl.
    China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically.
    China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end.
    Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes.
    China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979.
    China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened.
    The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India.
    The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it.
    There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does.
    But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies.
    For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn’t even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan’s or Germany’s GDP - not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn’t submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now?
    China will be the next global power. There’s nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world’s largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognise whatever bogus genocides it wants. That’s what it’s been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International” Space Station, to building its own Space Station from zero.

    I respectfully disagree over one key point here: it is not the Chinese system that the US finds difficult to trust. The fact is US never trust any potential competitor as the American culture always disdains and fears competition, it is regardless of the system runs by the competitors. Just look at Japan and Germany, both are democracies but when they rose to the size that could compete with the US, they were beaten down ruthlessly by the US anyway. The cruel reality is the political elites and the few capitalists well connected politically feel insecure that their monopoly over their narrow business interests are under potential threat. So the US political elites and the well connected capitalists must defend their interests at all cost to ensure hegemony, even at the expense of the majority of the people in US. The tragedy is most of the US voters do not exercise basic critical thinking to tell the lies, and chose to go senseless hysteria to support hatred weaponized by the crooks and liars, because that is simply the easiest way for emotional discharge.

    Belt and Road was not only about UN vote and voice, 120 countries voted against Gaza genocide 5 times and not much happened. BRI was a complex plan aimed at de-dollarisation to tackle US financial hegemony. Every trading country had had no alternative system but use dollar profits to buy dollar securities and bonds, feeding and financing US hegemonies including the military. Instead of spending an excess trillion dollars in US bonds, why not spend on BRI which China could well manage with 30 years of relentless construction experience and know hows. With BRI China trades infrastructures for resources, in a decade or two, global south countries will produce educated workforces for Chinese investments, along the path they will all de-dollarize to rid of dollar hegemony, win win all the way. In 30 years maybe most global south students could speak better Chinese than English, neautralizing US cultural hegemony. Imagine Chinese Disneyland, Chinese Hollywood, Chinese Netflix.

      That's very close, but not quite right - the BRI does a lot of things, but de-Dollarization is a secondary or tertiary effect. The primary intent of the BRI was economic: trade and investment. The BRI created vehicles for China to expand trade and invest their US Dollars in things other than US Treasuries. China lent vast sums of trade surplus Dollars to developing countries at low rates to pay for Chinese infrastructure. This allowed China to reduce Dollar exposure in exchange for stable interest payments (which convert into resources and raw materials), while keeping China's infrastructure construction going. As trade increased, China promoted fixed rate bilateral currency swap lines which bypass the US Dollar completely, cutting out conversion fees and US oversight, while preventing currency exchange fluctuation on both sides.

    The U.S. developed an ulterior sense of inferiority complex, self-doubt and self-defeat when it no longer has the ability as well the capability to compete head-on with China on various fields. First came the blame of China stealing American jobs, then American intellectual properties that led to the trade war. When all else failed, "national security" became the scapegoat to enforce an embargo on all things Chinese. And in a world of irrational nationalism with the promotion of the U.S. government through propaganda and the mainstream media, Americans subconsciously or otherwise began to point the finger at the Chinese nation.
    Fear is the only reason the U.S. wanted to contain China. When tariffs failed, technology sanctions followed. When both tariffs and sanctions failed, de-coupling became the buzzword. And when de-coupling was found to hurt the U.S. economy more than China's, it was changed to de-risking which in effect means a "slow de-coupling" until a more appropriate time.
    Twenty years ago, American muscle cars and reliable Japanese cars plus reputable German, French and Swedish cars and even newbies from South Korea were selling like hot cakes in the Chinese market and each and every maker made a fortune in China. Nowadays, however, the U.S. has no hope of selling anything to China -- not only industrial products but also agricultural produce which are easily replaced by many other countries around the globe.
    Now, America wants to ban Chinese EV's on the ground of the, again, "national security" scapegoat when in fact they fear for the future of all American automakers. Fear has also invaded European minds and the Europeans want to adopt the American low-life tactics. Sooner or later, the world will be divided into 2 camps: one that embraces worldwide integration and the other a closed economy that fears competition. The acceleration of the de-dollarization movement will speed up the divide even further, to the point that it may break the world monetary system in half.
    With the embargoes of high-tech equipment and the bans of all things Chinese from the U.S. market, it is clear the U.S. has lost all confidence in competing with China's technological advancements. And when the U.S. can only rely on the sole excuse of "national security" risk to try to restrict the rise of all Chinese marvels the likes of social media app, electric vehicles, new energy vehicles, battery technology and battery management software, advanced chip manufacturing, quantum computing, space exploration and AI robotics, etc., it is plain the U.S. has surrendered to China. The decline of the empire will accelerate along with the unstoppable de-dollarization effort mandated by an expanding BRICS. The destruction of the international supply chain by the U.S. forced China and many other countries to develop their own industrial base and the U.S. only has itself to blame for its own demise.
    Perhaps the coming "collapse of China" can somehow soothe the overwhelming anxiety of the West?

      China already dominates the fourth industrial revolution (automation). They have fully-automated ports, mines, trains, delivery, in operation today. For example, the Huawei-automated Port of Tianjin unloads container ships in less than half the time with 1/100th the manpower compared to the Port of Long Beach. Mass automation will allow China to be competitive even if their working population decreases. AI, etc. will accelerate automation, but it's not going to have the same broad impact, because it doesn't touch the machines directly.
      Greening is more of an efficiency and stability issue, where China won't have to import energy or suffer from pollution. I don't think it'll be as revolutionary unless it gets to superscale, where China has so much energy, they can start using it in ways that would be 'wasteful' if powered by non-renewable sources.

While it's true in a sense, the government steer direction of the nation development! What Westrn Nations doesn't understand is that the entrepreneurial spirit of Chinese people, once unleashed by the government, developed in breakneck speed as in manufacturing, high-speed rail, EV. May be AI next. Governments provide support like infrastructure, incentives like credits for EV (US view as unfair practice), no different than US subsidizing its agricultural production! Even though Elon Musk laughed at Chinese EV a few years ago, now he asked US governments for help( more tariff?), claiming if not,he couldn't compete! Even said they (Chinese) are very good!
    Chinese are free to capitalize on government initiatives, yet US/Europe only focuses on Chinese governments, who step in when things grow unfettered because of those freedoms, as in real estate bubble, issuing three red lines policy a few years ago! Quite opposite to Western politicians believes Chinese people are not free to do anythings.It's the entrepreneurs who created Huawei, Tik Tok, BYD....!
    China is in a tougher time recently, but if the government is competent as they've shown past 40 years! They may come out on top when the West gleefully proclaiming China will collapse!

Therefore the Chinese just do whatever techs they could to improve their livelihoods. They did it so successfully and profoundly that the global south economies got inspired. As de-dollars is concerned, both the Russian government and private citizens got robbed of over 300 billion U.S. dollars by the G7, that scared everyone away from the G7 financial markets.

    The desire for profits is a major feature of a market economy, where individuals and businesses operate to make a profit by producing goods and services that people are willing to pay for. China has been doing a great job in driving economic activities not just within its territorial boundary, but across the globe. But China is doing all that without the use of hegemonic means.
    If we were to take a step back in history, ‘gunboat diplomacy’ has been adopted and defined, by the Western school of international politics, as “the pursuit of foreign policy objectives with the aid of conspicuous displays of naval power, implying or constituting a direct threat of warfare should terms not be agreeable to the superior force.”
    But the displacements, the atrocities and the crimes perpetrated against humanity all across the world, would make this definition of gunboat diplomacy tasteless at best. Besides, gunboat and diplomacy are oxymoron.
    The displacement of natives in America, and in Australia; and the hegemony of the European East India companies against much of Africa and South Asia and South East Asia, in the 17th century were cases in point.
    China too, had incurred the rampage and pillage of the Western combined forces during the Opium War and the Eight-Nations Alliance.
    Truth be told, gunboat diplomacy is not a thing of the distance past. The world today is still very much being coerced into submission, whether by force or economic sanctions - albeit, mildly disguised as the so-called US-led international order.

Chinese lads in innovation in 37 areas and that to me is racing to the top. us and its allies still have strangle hold on some high end technologies such as high end chips which China's strategy is not compete as such but to supercede. example of cars, instead of trying to beat the west in ice cars china focused on ev's and batteries.
    the bipolar world will not succeed. for two reasons. one, America is imploding under weight of its debt and buyers will buy less as America pushes for bipolar. two, America may instigate a world war when it can't sustains its spending by debt. simply force China to start a war with Taiwan by putting more troops in Taiwan and se region.

    What an insightful presentation; thank you. You are absolutley right, it is the medium technology are the basis for mass produced products that everybody wants and the size of the market matters. It is the competition mass produced goods that drive high technology. As companies succeed in the mass produced medium technology, there is fierce competion between them. As these companies make more money and want to compete better with peers, they are forced to innovate with better technology. Innovation is expensive, so it they can buy high technology input from these high tech companies it is cheaper to get that competitive edge. Without the profits in the mass produced goods producers there isn't the resources to do the research to push the high tech suppliers into even higher technology. If you break that link, as the west is doing, who are you going to sell that technology to. Without those sales the high technology companies do not have the resources to retain their edge. Without the customers for you products, namely high technology input, your ecosystem will collapse. I believe, Pascal, that is your main point.
    I live in the West and I want it do well; but the path we are taking is a road to disaster. Technology edge is a difficult thing to maintain, it requires both proffits and trust. Your mass manufacturing customers have to trust that you will be a stable and reliable supplier. The trust is that it is cheaper to buy the technology from you rather that put the investment to create it themselves. We seem to be determined to break that fragile co-dependency and not does not bode well for the future of the West. Market side is king.
